Now delivered digitally, Linear Algebra with Applications is a thorough, accessible introduction to linear algebra that encourages a challenging and broad understanding of the subject. A leading figure in using technology for linear algebra, Steve Leon is now joined by new co-author Lisette de Pillis, who brings her passion for teaching and solving real-world problems to the 10th Edition. Transformed from print to a digital-based tool, it is packed with features such as interactive figures that bring content to life. This change in format supports the authors' hallmark of using modern practical application to make key concepts tangible and demonstrating how mathematics is used in the real world. Each chapter contains integrated worked examples, practical applications, computer exercises and chapter tests. The important roles played by geometry and visualization in understanding linear algebra are emphasized. Calculus is assumed as a prerequisite.
